i've compiled a chronilogical list of all 124 Pink Panther theatrical cartoon shorts created between 1964 and 1980... this list does not include TV specials or episodes of TV shows, though many of the theatrical shorts were featured in episodes of various Panther TV shows, and all of these have been televised at some point... all of the shorts listed here are available in The Pink Panther Classic Cartoon Collection...
for each film, i have listed the title, the date of original release (in mm/dd/yy format), and - since many of the titles really aren't enough to jog people's memories - a short description of the setup (though i tried not to give away too many spoilers)...
